Ask YC: how to go about setting up my own online store

It can be costly but there are placement agencies that can help determine a developer's qualifications. That is a route to consider.
If the store is not terribly specialized, there are plenty of solidly built solutions that you should consider before a custom build. Using something like Shopify (http://shopify.com) makes things very easy.

Hi,
no, the shop isn't massively specialized but I think it would be too much to comfortably take on with Shopify (where I am currently setting up another store).
With regard to placement agencies, are you able to point me in the direction of any such agencies?
Thanks very much.

I'm hoping for some feedback/advice on the following: I'm looking to set up an e-commerce solution for which I am going to invest approximately $10,000.- of my own money. However, I am not a programmer/have very little understanding of programming and, given that it's my own hard-earned cash, I'm very nervous about making a wrong decision.
Some stuff that's going through my head:
There are a large number of other questions going through my head but the above are the major concerns.
Any kind of pointers would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks
